Giving Tuesday Donations 2022

Support HMRRC as we continue our mission to serve our local running community. 

• Just Run Program - Every fall and spring a team of volunteers host a cross country track meet where local elementary schools compete.  Each team is trained before or after school for the 800 or 1600 meter course.  In addition to the hosting the 2-day track meet, HMRRC provides a stipend for each coach and shirts for each runner. This is typically young runners first introduction to the sport of running and can provide an experience of running with a team.  HMRRC budgets approximately $45K each year to support the program.

• Bill Shrader Sr. Memorial Scholarship - Each year HMRRC awards scholarships to local high school graduates to support their continued education on their way to be life-long runners.  Bill Shrader Sr. was a founder of HMRRC and we honor his love for running through the fund that distributes $18K in scholarships annually. 

• Grants for Capital Region - We can't do it alone!  HMRRC understands that it takes a village to build an active and vibrant running community.  The grant program was established to provide local qualifying organizations that share a common vision to support our local running community with access to otherwise unavailable funding.  HMRRC budgets $10K annually to providing grants to worthy organizations. 

Please consider donating and sharing in our vision of a healthier society and vibrant running community!
